Red Sox Eye Otto Lopez for Shortstop | Boston Red Sox News
Description
Boston Red Sox are eyeing a long-term shortstop upgrade even before Curtis Mead’s injury, with Otto Lopez of the Marlins emerging as the top target. Lopez is crushing it this season — leading MLB in batting average and doubles — and is under contract through 2029, making him the perfect fit for Boston’s future. But trading him would hurt Miami’s playoff push. Meanwhile, bringing Lopez in could sideline Trevor Story and Marcelo Mayer, and block Franklin Arias’ path to the majors — even as the Sox envision a stacked infield with Contreras, Mead, Lopez, and Durbin. It’s a bold move with big implications.
